I was working remotely for eleven years. I left a sales job because finding affordable childcare in the school holidays was impossible.

We didn’t have a lot of money but I enjoyed working from home and being available to go to the school and joining in with their outings, helping with lunchtime clubs and afterschool clubs. My work fitted in between.

I had learnt some online skills and was able to find small business enterprises that understood what I was able to offer because they were already offering a similar service. I was another pair of hands to help them achieve their goals. Working remotely, gave me the opportunity to work at a time that suited me. In local business clubs I was offering #OnlineMarketing it was new, people didn’t think it would take off and now everyone is doing it.

At this time I was working as a #freelancer for the online business club #Ecademy. Through #Ecademy I joined their premium membership #Blackstar and was able to attend workshops and learnt various business skills and Social Media support/creating and social selling.

We undertook several profiling assessments with view to improve teamwork and networking.

D.I.S.C by psychologist William Moulton Marston which centres on four different personality traits. Then we also had IMA from James Knight who chose to place personalities into colours.

In 2012, I joined World Ventures and again there was another system personality Test. This one again put people into colours. Once undertaken this test you will have had a much better understanding of who you are and what your natural tendencies are, and more importantly, you will understand the people who are not like you much more clearly, and uncover a much easier and more effective way to interact and communicate with those people. While no one can be totally defined by which of the four basic groups they fall into, once you learn how to read people’s colors (Red, Blue, Green, Yellow) you will have a competitive advantage in understanding what will be the most effective way to communicate with them for the purpose of business networking.

I was a bit timid when i started off in all these business ventures, but was particularly drawn in this for the opportunities to attend Leadership seminars globally. Now in 2020, the company has grown so large and has embraced technology and made it a whole lot easier to be involved with a home based business with all the resources at your fingertips.

For those of us who use #Smartphones the business can be operated from your phone on various apps. Though of course there is also a desktop version for all to use.

There is a structure in place to follow, though you are your own Boss of course. I am fitting in the prospecting around working in the day time and use the autoresponder app (Rapid Funnel) to send out the information to those who request it and then this carries on following up until people are ready to make a decision.

I am therefore inviting people to consider what their PLAN-B maybe for this time of uncertainty during the Corona Virus and in this time of lockdown where we are advised to say at home, would an additional source of income come in handy? What about the future? This opportunity is suitable for both young and old to build a residual income for your legacy.
